I believe Russell has made 15 three point shots through three games. Very early prediction to make for someone to make of a pure freshman follows. He may set the all time Cajun record for made three pointers in his career. I believe Sydney Grider still has that record despite only playing two years as he was a JC transfer. As far as today's game goes, it was disappointing to see the opponent once again have success with dribble penetration to the basket. However that was somewhat by design today as the game plan was to run the opponent off the three point line. Give the team credit in that regard as Savannah State shot only 17 three pointers and they are usually over 40 three point attempts in a game. 20 turnovers is too many but at times they were very effective in running the offense as most of the made threes were wide open looks and Stroman had 11 assists from the point guard spot. The team had 30 assists overall which is a very encouraging statistic as that indicates there are no "me" guys on the squad.

I want to see this kid stick around for 4 years and see what he can do to the record books.
